At most, the wife might try to take the new owner to small claims court once the estate is settled. And usually you don't need a lawyer to do so. As to whether he was fired or resigned, he can explain his position when he files for unemployment. Only the UI judge will say for sure whether or not he gets benefits. The new owner/company can appeal, but they then usually have the burden of proof. Unfortuantely, he might have handed it to them directly by documenting incorrectly. But it is also going to depend on the state. It always amazes me how many people make deals without anything written down...even a simple followup email woulld be documentation on the computer deal. And it is my understanding that an "anti-nepotism" policy -- not hiring relatives which includes a spouse is common and legal in most states. I had some friends who met at work and married and one of them had to voluntarily give up their position due to the nepotism policy.Posted by rrupert[/QUOTE]

Thank you for the reply. In a small business it's hard not to have a heart for people that work there.]]>634568220000000000:FeedActivityKey:a31eb5cf-9df9-4333-bd73-b81f3b1ec7e0UserKey:jaisboseejaisbosee started the discussion "Does this employee need a lawyer?" http://www.workforce.com/forums?plckForumPage=ForumDiscussion&plckDiscussionId=Cat%3aTopic+ForumsForum%3aForumId54Discussion%3aeca5bc5e-2392-48a2-8a04-559a4f57d5a7 Wed, 09 Nov 2011 03:47:02 GMT634563864000000000:FeedActivityKey:dcb54aa0-97f6-40a6-8c84-dab17cc4c952UserKey:jaisbosee
